About This Home

As of April 2025

This meticulously updated residence in Wilmette is nestled within the highly sought-after McKenzie School District, offering a remarkable fusion of elegance and practical living. Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac on a sprawling quarter-acre lot, this home is thoughtfully designed throughout. The spacious formal living room features expansive windows that bathe the space in natural light. This flows effortlessly into a large dining room, ideal for hosting intimate dinners or grand gatherings. At the heart of the home lies a fully renovated kitchen, designed for both style and function, with a generous island, stunning quartz countertops and a cozy breakfast nook that enjoys abundant sunlight. Adjacent to the kitchen, the inviting family room, highlighted by a striking fireplace and French doors, opens onto a charming patio, perfect for outdoor dining and relaxation. Luxury Brazilian chestnut hardwood floors add warmth and sophistication throughout this level. On the second floor, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, including an impressive primary suite with a spa-like en-suite bathroom, complete with dual vanities and a luxurious walk-in shower with a separate soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms share a generously sized hall bathroom with a double vanity. The finished basement, completed in 2020, provides a fantastic multi-functional space, perfect for recreation or entertainment. The home underwent a major renovation in 2018, which included fresh interior and exterior paint, a completely redesigned kitchen with top-of-the-line cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, and quartz countertops. The bathrooms were also remodeled to include high-end finishes, while the electrical system was upgraded with a new 200-amp panel. New hardwood floors were installed on the first floor, and existing floors were refinished on the second floor. Additional upgrades include new Marvin/Pella windows, wood panel doors throughout, a new driveway, and enhanced attic insulation. The beautifully landscaped backyard is a true retreat, featuring a fire pit, mature trees, a custom shed, and thoughtful landscaping that creates a private sanctuary for outdoor living. Walking distance to Highcrest Middle School and Wilmette Junior High School! 2Located just steps from Centennial Ice Rink, Lovelace Park, the train station, and more, this home offers an unbeatable location for an active lifestyle.
